Does anyone know if you can replace granulated sugar with powdered? For use on hooves not in wounds. I thought it would make it more like a paint for easier application

Never tried it!

I used to use this stuff back in the day. Works great.

If you can find one without any cornstarch, I don’t see why not, it’s just finely ground sugar.
But I believe most contain a small amount of cornstarch, and cornstarch increases bacteria growth, so I would be hesitant to use it for fear of it making the paste less effective.
Alternatively, get a grinder or something and pound your own sugar into powdered sugar.

If you have a good blender (like a Vitamix) you can powder the sugar in that. Not sure it makes a lot of difference once liquid is added, but worth a try just for fun.
